Title: Cultural Diversity, Value Conflict and Ethical Decision Making for Mental Health Clinicians
Description: The objective of this course is to help the mental health clinician address the complex ethical problems that arise in working with clients from different cultural backgrounds and value systems, and to explore how one begins to find solutions and compromises to complicated ethical dilemmas while simultaneously operating within the clinician's professional framework and honoring and respecting cultural diversity and difference. This training will use a number of scenarios to highlight some of the complex ethical dilemmas that counselors are likely to face. When the trainee completes this course, he or she will:

-Learn the elements, purposes and dynamics of cultural material, such as values, beliefs, and rituals
